Mondays suck. Especially when you worked a 12 hour shift Saturday night, stayed up all night to rage, worked another 12 hour shift Sunday, and are back Monday to work another.

But Saturday night, I did get out of my first speeding ticket ever. Aggies in law enforcement >>>

I don't envy you. I was talking to my Dad just yesterday and two of the welders he works with left the grounds to pick up lunch mid-shift and managed to get into an accident. Both are off for at least the next two weeks. They now have exactly one welder per shift and one is on vacation this week. So it's looking like he'll be working doubles all week.

You need to chain it to your desk.

I'm sensitive about my office supplies, probably because I brought them in because what they give us is shite. Last week it was my purple tape dispenser.

What's sad is my stapler even has my name on it.

It happens. That is just the way things work. You work in a hyper competitive market, especially energy, and you pay people somewhat decently, you can't really overhire, so when things go haywire you have to pick up slack. Certified welders make a shite ton of money too.

On a related note, I want to get out of the field soooo badly, and supposedly I get a huge leg up in a couple over people that have been at a desk the whole time, but I am young and want to be in a city. I'm taking sort of an informational interview, hook up thing from one of the higher ups in the DFW area this Friday on my days off. Gotta get a haircut, do some dry cleaning, etc, but hopefully things are about to get a little but more fun for ole FaWx.

Idk about your supplies, but this might shed a clue.

The other day my sister(no pics) went to pick up kids she babysat. IDR where exactly, but there were a handful of inner city kids. The kids she was there to pick up were playing a rather interesting game. Curious, she asked them about.

"Robin folk " as they called it.

When they told her the name of the game, they then explained the rules.

One person distracts while the other runs up and takes something from another. You then sprint away and avoid being caught.

That's the lesson today's youth is learning.

Teachers that give test on Mondays should be beat with a garden hose pipe. (as to not kill them, but get the point across)

Ah ha.. a clue. So your name is either Stanley or Bostitch, at least that is what's on my stapler.

Oh no. I actually used our bookkeeper's labeler and labeled the thing. I label all of my good shite. You have to or it'll grow legs pretty quick.

IM sitting in my truck outside my now-completely barren house waiting for base housing to show up and inspect the place for damages and take my keys. Hopefully they don't throw up any roadblocks--not in the mood to be fricked with today.
